This Partagas Serie Mini is distinguished by a power and aroma reminiscent of its elder brother, the "D4" series cigar. It almost makes you forget its small size, 82 mm long and only 8 mm in diameter. You'll need just ten minutes to enjoy this Mini Panatela, yet all the characteristics of a Cuban cigar are there for the taking.
Cuba's oldest cigar factory, Partagas was founded in 1845 by Don Jaime Partagas Ravelo when he left Spain for Havana. As the owner of several tobacco farms in the Vuelta Abajo, a terroir recognized as the world's "grand cru" for tobacco, Don Jaime had the best raw material on hand to produce cigars of excellence.
Success soon followed, and many aristocrats of all nationalities became loyal customers, so much so that the factory was almost renamed "Manufacture Royale".
Under the avant-garde impetus of its founder, Partagas was the first factory to experiment with different fermentation techniques, and was also the first to employ the services of a «reader», making the torcedors' work less monotonous and, above all, contributing to the culture and education of its employees. Following the death of Don Jaime Partagas Ravelo, the factory underwent several changes of ownership, until it came into the hands of the Cifuentes family in 1940. Following the Cuban revolution and the departure of its owners in 1961, Partagas remained one of the most important factories alongside Montecristo and Romeo y Julieta, accounting for almost 25% of Cuban production.
